Thanks Blue! Yes, I agree with most of that. I still think Jacques made a mistake with the greenstone and that the instructions shouldn't've been carved in Riftguard script, but in the English of the times. For it still doesn't explain how Sarango knew how to turn the stone, and even if he figured it out, there's no reason for him to carve the instructions into the stone. If he had, then they would've looked much newer and different from the old, badger-worn stone itself. I'm glad you also like Cap'n Plugg. You explained the deaths of the adders well enough, but that doesn't keep it from being anticlimactic and kinda like a cheap death, for so great and feared adversaries.
